Marie Retraces Two Years of Breast Cancer Care in Photographic Exhibition
A photographic exhibition tracing the two-year journey of a breast cancer patient named Marie opened at the COPB ahead of its closing date at the end of the month. Documenting the progression from initial diagnosis through treatments and subsequent reconstruction, the collection features color prints that capture both medical procedures and emotional realities.
The COPB noted that the sensitive and deeply human series invites visitors to view the condition differently while offering a message of hope to patients and their families.
Outreach Events Support Patients and Staff
Alongside the gallery display, the facility hosted a pink café event designed to connect patients and their caregivers with medical staff. Sessions held on October 6 and October 20 featured a socio-esthetician leading nail-care demonstrations to support patients.
To benefit staff members, the center partnered with the association CAMI Sport & Cancer to introduce adapted physical activity sessions. These workshops allowed medical professionals to experience firsthand how targeted physical movement aids recovery, helping them better direct patients toward appropriate support programs during and after treatment.
